Please send me a message or reply to this post if you have symptoms of the chickpea emerging health issue

I would like to dig up some plants and have them in large pots to show as examples at Crop Diagnostic School
I will be working at Crop Diagnostic School in Swift Current July 29 and 30. If anyone has chickpea with symptoms of the chickpea emerging health issue, I'd love to know about it
